You guys are lucky as hell. I am an accountant- started my career at a tax firm working 65-70+ hours a week during tax time to get my “base knowledge” and am now working as a controller for a local construction firm that hired me to do clean up work and get their financial status back on track. I use my brain compartment 9+ hours a day at work for a mediocre salary. I absolutely love what I do and couldn’t imagine myself doing anything else in life, but I know I will continue to work day in and day out… For 3 months after tax time last year I worked for a non-profit making really good money to do NO WORK… literally worked 4-5 hours a week… At the time I loved it, but 4-5 years of working at that job I wouldn’t have anything to add to my resume and would be so rusty. I am challenged at my job everyday and will be able to say I helped turn around a $35-30 million company on my resume. I do get very jealous of all of you “staties” and those of you who say you don’t have to do much work at “work”… soak it up while you can!!! / kkk post! ---

My job is pretty random sometimes. Theres days when I bust my ass and others where I sit on my ass and do almost nothing. This week there was quite a bit of traveling because I had to go to Plattsburgh one day and Willsboro twice. I work on anything from small gram scales to truck scales so theres a bit of variety. I spent all last week at a pharmaceutical manufacturer. Gowning up and down several times a day got old real quick.
